Knicks Go From Bad To Worse
Early yesterday, the New York Knicks lost point guard Stephon Marbury when he [abruptly left the team]. Last night, they [lost the game](http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/recap?gameId=271113021) and Marburys replacement. Head coach Isiah Thomas lost his mind years ago. Now, the season might be slipping away too.
The Knicks fell 113-102 to the Phoenix Suns last night, in the first game of their four-game road trip. The loss dropped them to [2-4 overall], and they still have to visit the Los Angeles Clippers, Sacramento and Denver over the next four days. Theyll almost certainly leave the West Coast in last place in the Atlantic Division, and the team might have fewer members than some Native American tribes by the time they return home.
Aside from Starburys absence, Quentin Richardson (hyper-extended elbow) and Zach Randolph (grandmothers death) have also been M.I.A. Marburys replacement, Mardy Collins, left last nights game with an ankle sprain. Its possible these are legitimate excuses, but its also possible these guys just [dont want to get booed] anymore. After all, if I were a Knick, Id fake an injury too.
